I am a Research Scientist at Netflix, where I work to push the boundaries of entertainment through AI innovation, particularly in video games. Previously, I received a PhD at MIT advised by Justin Solomon, a B.S. in Computer Science and Mathematics and an M.S. in Mathematics, both at Stanford University.
My research centers on two questions at the intersection of AI and games:
AI-Powered Game Experiences: What new, subversive forms of interaction become possible when AI is not merely used to build a game, but runs within it—responding, adapting, and creating alongside the player?
Games as an AI Research Frontier: What unique AI research problems emerge in games? Can we teach AI to understand and emulate human players—and ultimately to model what makes a game fun?
